Summary
Prompt: Mark and Helena nasty drunk hookup
Set after they meet at the Chinese restaurant, of course.
As he hits the unlock button on his key FOB, part of him starts to feel slightly disgusted with himself. A little bit of alcohol and attention from a girl almost 20 years younger than him was really all it took? Well, that and the devastating grief, he supposes. At one point he’d read an article about how people use sex to cope with grief. So in that regard, at least he isn’t alone.
It also doesn’t help that said woman is Helena fucking Eagan

Summary
She remembers the sight of Mark between her legs, the way she gripped him by the hair and held him there, wordlessly begging him not to stop. But she can’t get the image of Helly out of her head. Helly with her clothes askew, lips parted, messy hair framing her face—wild and uninhibited like she always is, like Helena only got to be the few days she stepped into her shoes and tried to walk into Mark’s heart.
Helena wants.

Summary
"No chauffeur today?" he asks. "You’ve changed, Helena." The way he says her name makes her toes curl inside her shoes. So different from his voice down on the severed floor and in the tent; it had been desperate and cracking like a little boy's, each word buoyant. Now he just sounds pissed. "Nice parking job, by the way."
"I would’ve parked in the driveway, but your sports cars were in the way."

Mark S. returns to work after the stroke.

Summary
[By the way: facing the wall, such gentlemen—that is, the “direct” persons and men of action—are genuinely nonplussed. For them a wall is not an evasion, as for us people who think and consequently do nothing; it is not an excuse for turning aside, an excuse for which we are always very glad, though we scarcely believe in it ourselves, as a rule. No, they are nonplussed in all sincerity. The wall has for them something tranquillising, morally soothing, final—maybe even something mysterious ... but of the wall later.]

Summary
It starts with a nosebleed.
Helly hovers nearby, the image of blood smeared on his cheek still fresh in her mind. Miss Huang's voice fades to a dull hum as her gaze catches on Mark's hand, his fingers wrapped around the edge of the desk. Her mind immediately flashes to exactly where that hand was not even an hour ago, and she's sure her face is flushed as she recalls how wonderful he made her feel.
Everything since she returned to the severed floor has been a nightmare that she can’t escape, but this. This is one good thing. Something that belongs just to her and Mark.
Something that no one can take away from her.
But then Miss Huang suddenly calls out Mark's name, her voice shrill with panic. When Helly looks at him, his face is paler than it should be, his gaze vacant, and a thick tendril of fear slithers through her veins.
-----
or, Mark forgets bit by bit.
